Red Widow

Past Events

We like to look at a season of a television show and try to take away one salient point from it. That is why we regularly give you those 'If we have learned one thing about...' things. We say this because if we have learned one thing about "Red Widow" it is that you don't mess with Radha Mitchell. Oh, things may not have gone entirely her way this season and people have messed with her, but if this show continues we see a world in which she, Michael Corleone style, pulls all the strings.

Stay-at-home mom Marta Walraven's life changes drastically after her husband, a marijuana exporter, is murdered; Marta must repay her late husband's debt to crime boss Nicholae Schiller by navigating the criminal world while protecting her children.

Did last week's double-episode premiere of 'Red Widow" entice you? Did it intrigue you? Did it convince you that you absolutely had to start watching this Radha Mitchell-starring series? Well, the show hits its regular time period tonight. For those of you who don't recall the show, it's the one where the woman loses her husband and then ends up going more in an organized crime direction rather than a help the feds one. Her aims may be admirable--keeping her family safe being chief amongst them--but wishes and results aren't always equal.
